After ordering Cheng Haoyue, He Nu, He Yu, Liu Jia, and others to evacuate the enemy camp and return to our side, Ji You did not retreat immediately but personally went to engage with Wei Yun.

Cough, cough...

According to Ji You, she was engaging with Wei Yun, but from Wei Yun’s perspective, Ji You was deliberately coming to threaten and intimidate him...

Once Wei Yun, still shaken, confirmed that Ji You had indeed left, he looked at his former base, now reduced to ruins, with former teammates lying down, never to be seen again...

His heart was instantly overshadowed by a sense of dreariness and gloom.

But there was no time to despair, as the battlefield changes rapidly, not allowing any delay. After taking a deep breath, Wei Yun decided to immediately find someone. Of course, Wei Yun knew that Ji You had ulterior motives for leaving him behind, but if he let these concerns cause the control room to miss important intelligence, he would be even more upset and regretful!

Therefore, Wei Yun didn’t delay any further and set off at full speed.

And his destination?

Ji You hoped he would go find the Commander... As thoughts jumbled in his mind, Wei Yun suddenly steeled his heart, silently saying to himself: [You want me to find the Commander? I refuse!]

Thus, to avoid falling for Ji You’s true intentions, Wei Yun pondered for a moment and decided to go find the Squad Leader of the neighboring squad! She first conveyed the information Ji You had disclosed to the adjacent Squad Leader to see how he would react.

Moreover, Wei Yun had no way to directly contact their Commander, nor did he have information on the Commander’s specific location... As a low-ranking soldier, Wei Yun had no access to such information, so if the neighboring Squad Leader determined these intelligence reports must be reported to the Commander, he could do so in his capacity as Squad Leader, ensuring the message would reach the Commander faster and more accurately.

Since entering the field, Wei Yun had never left Shaun’s base and had always been helping Shaun set up the signal tower’s basic infrastructure, so she was actually unfamiliar with the environment outside the base.

As Wei Yun stumbled her way through, she heard that after passing a few low hills, she would encounter a canyon with a babbling stream running through it. After making a round, Wei Yun still hadn’t found it and thought to herself that she must have taken the wrong path.

Frowning, Wei Yun retraced her steps and changed directions.

As she walked, Wei Yun suddenly heard a sound unlike the rustling of leaves or the wind, and her body paused—

Whoosh~

An extremely clear whistling sound came directly toward her, and Wei Yun’s heart pounded in shock. She thought to herself that it was bad; she was either being surrounded by the enemy or mistaken as the ’enemy’ by her own camp!

In the nick of time, Wei Yun rolled on the ground, and an arrow grazed her forehead, with its sharp head and strong wind severing a lock of hair from her forehead!

Wei Yun’s heart jolted again, and she rolled once more, avoiding a sledgehammer hit!

Seeing the second wave of fierce attacks about to descend, Wei Yun shouted, "Wait!"

Initially thinking the heavy hammer from the opponent wouldn’t stop and would directly come at her, the attack overhead actually halted, and Wei Yun’s eyes widened as she said, "Which camp are you from?"

The one attacking Wei Yun was a male student, handsome and tall and robust in stature. Hearing Wei Yun speak, the male student didn’t answer, still pointing his weapon straight at Wei Yun’s head. Then he slightly turned his head, looking in the direction behind him, and said, "Reporting to the Squad Leader, the person has been captured."

Hearing the word ’Squad Leader,’ Wei Yun felt a surge of joy and asked, "Which squad’s Squad Leader are you?"

The male student turned his face back, raised his weapon, and looked at Wei Yun expressionlessly, not making a sound.

The attitude could be described as extremely rude, and Wei Yun felt a bit annoyed, glaring at the male student and the direction behind him. Then she saw a squad of people marching toward her, led by a blond-haired, blue-eyed, imposing young man.

Wei Yun pressed her lips, intending to speak, when the leading male voice said, "Name, number, squad."

Wei Yun heard this, frowned, but seeing the strong stance of the other party, with strength in numbers, knowing she certainly couldn’t fight them off or escape, gritted her teeth and said, "Wei Yun, 5714, Sixth Squad, Sixth Team."

The person standing before Wei Yun was none other than Lou, who was rushing back to his base with a team of his men. Despite their anxious pace, they remained vigilant along the way, allowing them to spot the isolated Wei Yun at first glance.

Upon discovering Wei Yun, Lou didn’t hastily send people forward to inquire but had them carefully observe the surroundings until confirming Wei Yun was alone before shooting the first arrow.

The arrow was shot by Lou.

The intention, of course, wasn’t to take Wei Yun’s life but merely to give the other side a show of power. If Wei Yun were the enemy, she would surely reveal her true colors.

After Wei Yun reported her information, she noticed the group before her suddenly had an odd expression, except for the leading blue-eyed, blond-haired male who remained impassive.

Wei Yun took another deep breath and said, "I have reported my information according to your request. Now it’s your turn, isn’t it?"

After speaking, she looked slightly nervously at Lou.

Lou furrowed his brow slightly and, instead of immediately answering Wei Yun, turned to the male holding the sledgehammer, saying, "Xie Hui, go forward and check her wristband."

The wristband was distributed by officials before entering the field; every participating student was equipped with one. It can be used to receive system messages but cannot send messages, so it cannot be used as a communication device. However, it can serve as a means of identification.

Moreover, the wristband can be removed, meaning it could be stolen by others and used for impersonation, so using it as the sole identification method proves unreliable.

The male with the sledgehammer put his weapon aside and approached Wei Yun, who showed no signs of resistance, willingly letting him check the information on her wristband.

After checking, he nodded at Lou.

Lou said, "You’re from the Sixth Team of the Sixth Squad, how come you’re here?" The implication being that everyone in the Sixth Team of the Sixth Squad, from the Squad Leader to the members, were all gone, all eliminated, and you’re the only one left alive?

Wei Yun steadied her mind and asked, "Did you come from the direction of the Sixth Squad? Then you should have found that both the Sixth Team and the Seventh Team are gone, right? The reason I am still alive is that the enemy deliberately spared me."

Lou’s mind tightened, yet he remained very patient, waiting for Wei Yun to explain herself.

Wei Yun organized her thoughts internally before speaking, "It was an infiltrator into our camp, who deliberately spared me to send a message to our Commander."
